It’s ironic that Obama’s 2008 campaign platform focused on the amorphous, fleeting, impractical emotion of HOPE. I get it, it’s just campaign PROPAGANDA – formed by small minds, preying on smaller ones.
From the politician’s standpoint, the best part of such an ambiguous “promise” is the near impossibility of measuring it. From time to time, loaded polls suggest constituent “approval”; however, the FACT remains that Obama is currently tied – with George W. Bush, no less – for the most “unpopular” re-elected President since Gallup started taking such polls in 1945…

I was taught a long time ago not to judge a person by the words out of their mouth, but instead by their actions.

Sad that liars are easily identified, but folks just don’t seem to figure it out.
